Heaven-Dominating Martial Emperor

"That's utter nonsense!"

Upon hearing the Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter's words, Yan Zhenfang's expression turned cold.

"Master Ye, please refine a Truth-Telling Pill and make him speak the truth!"

"After we've caught that Ye Chen, we can deal with this fellow slowly!"

Liu Yuchan's expression shifted slightly. 'Why does the Yan family Patriarch's reaction look like he's trying to hide something?'

Ye Chen glanced at the half-dead Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter and chuckled softly. "Refine a Truth-Telling Pill? Of course, I can."

"Bastards!"

"No matter what you do, I won't talk! You hypocrites, you should all go to hell!!!"

the Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter hissed, gritting his teeth.

His mind was already hazy, and he failed to recognize Ye Chen's voice.

"Hmph! Anyone who takes a Truth-Telling Pill is absolutely incapable of telling a lie!"

"Today, I will have you reveal every inside detail you know in front of everyone!"

Yan Zhenfang's expression was ruthless, his tone mocking.

He immediately looked at Ye Chen. "Master Ye, please begin the alchemy! Just tell us whatever medicinal ingredients you need!"

Ye Chen nodded slightly. "I don't need any ingredients. To refine a Truth-Telling Pill, you can start by paying me one million low-grade Spirit Stones."

The moment he spoke, the entire room fell silent.

Ye Chen's eyes were slightly closed, and he said nothing more.

In the crushingly oppressive atmosphere, Chen Jue swallowed hard, already thinking of leaving.

'How could he not see it? Elder Ye is clearly dead set on causing trouble for the Yan family to the very end!'

'He didn't want to get dragged into this!'

At this, Yan Zhenfang's expression also became mocking.

He clapped his hands, and a flurry of footsteps was heard from outside the door. A group of Yan family guards appeared, standing menacingly at the entrance.

"Elder Ye, it seems you find it amusing to trifle with our Yan family, is that right?"

Yan Zhenfang spoke slowly, his hands clasped behind his back.

Behind him, the upper echelon of the Yan family glared at Ye Chen with chilling expressions.

"Oh?"

"Is the Yan Patriarch planning to use force to compel me to perform alchemy?" Ye Chen asked impassively, glancing at the guards outside the door.

"Hmph!"

"You swallowed a million of our Yan family's low-grade Spirit Stones! And now you dare to make such an outrageous demand just to refine a single Truth-Telling Pill?"

"Elder Ye, you may be a respected Alchemist of high status, but our Yan family is no pushover!"

Yan Zhenfang stared at Ye Chen, his killing intent surging. "Elder Ye, today, you will refine this Truth-Telling Pill whether you want to or not!!!"

A terrifying killing intent filled the small, quiet room.

Liu Yuchan quietly pulled Liu Yanran back into a corner.

Even he had not expected things to escalate to this point!

"Brother, is there something wrong with this Elder Ye's head?"

Liu Yanran couldn't help but ask, "Hasn't the relationship between him and the Yan family already eased?"

"Why would he still dare to make such a rude demand? Does he really think that just because the Yan family compensated him with one million low-grade Spirit Stones, they're easy to bully?"

Liu Yuchan stared gravely at the figure in front of them, surrounded by members of the Yan family.

"Have you ever considered that Elder Ye came to the Yan family to deliberately cause trouble?"

"Deliberately cause trouble for the Yan family?" Liu Yanran's expression changed. "Because they captured this Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter? Could it be that Elder Ye is really..."

Just then, Ye Chen suddenly said to Chen Jue, who was standing to the side, "Elder Chen, please step aside."

"Elder Ye, this..." Chen Jue said with a troubled expression. "The Yan family's power is among the top in Lei Province. There's really no need to make things so hostile with them!"

"But they've been hunting me relentlessly. The enmity between me and the Yan family was already irreconcilable."

Ye Chen shook his head and looked at Chen Jue with a serious expression.

"What?"

"Could it be that you're..." Chen Jue's eyes widened. A certain suspicion in his heart seemed to be confirmed at this very moment!

Not far away, the Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter, who was suspended in mid-air, also seemed to sense the unusual atmosphere.

Despite his hazy consciousness and severe injuries, he endured the pain and struggled to lift his head to see the scene before him.

"SWOOSH!"

Ye Chen flicked his finger, and a streak of light shot out!

"AHHH—"

Outside the door, the chests of all the Yan family guards were pierced through, leaving bloody holes!

They screamed as they fell one after another, and the stench of blood instantly filled the air!

"Elder Ye, you dare to strike?!" Yan Zhenfang roared in fury, his aura exploding outward!

"Why wouldn't I dare?"

"You laid a hand on my man first, and you even schemed to kill me!"

"Today, what does it matter if I slaughter the entire Yan family!"

A terrifying aura instantly erupted from Ye Chen!

His bamboo hat was instantly thrown back, revealing a young and handsome face!

Chen Jue was stunned. The siblings, Liu Yuchan and Liu Yanran, also stared with wide eyes.

The man who had caused such a huge uproar in Luoyun City was now standing right in front of them!

"AHHH! It's you!!!"

"You're Ye Chen!"

Yan Zhenfang roared, "You harmed my brother, and you still dare to show your face before me!"

"Today, you can forget about walking out of my Yan family estate!"

Ye Chen's expression was icy. Ignoring the Yan family members, he made a single motion with his hand and rescued the Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter.

"Sect Leader! You've come!"

The Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter was so emotional his entire body trembled.

He had already fallen into despair, never expecting to see Ye Chen at a time like this!

"This is a Healing Elixir. Take it and treat your injuries."

Ye Chen flicked his finger, and a pill fell into the Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter's mouth.

The Nine-Fingered Demon Slaughter swallowed it without the slightest hesitation, allowing the medicinal power to spread and nourish his body.

"You little bastard, die!"

The Yan family's Grand Elder, Yan Ming, was the first to step forward, his terrifying aura flaring up!

The shocking might of the Ninth Layer of the Spirit Sea Realm instantly bore down on Ye Chen.

"Ninth Layer of the Spirit Sea Realm?"

'It's over. Is Elder Ye going to be alright?'

Chen Jue swallowed hard.

In his eyes, the conflict between the righteous and demonic paths was not important. What was important was that Ye Chen was an Alchemist for their Treasure Pavilion!

How could such a powerful Alchemist, who could bring immeasurable wealth to the Treasure Pavilion, be allowed to perish here?

"Overestimating your own strength!"

Ye Chen thrust out a palm, and Yan Ming's oppressive might was instantly torn to shreds!

As if struck by a heavy blow, he was sent flying backward, smashing heavily against the wall!

The quiet room could no longer hold, and it collapsed with a deafening BOOM!

Everyone scrambled to escape outside.

"BLEGH—"

Yan Ming violently spat out a large mouthful of blood and hissed, "This boy's strength is terrifying! Our Yan family is no match for him! Patriarch, quickly call for reinforcements!"

Yan Zhenfang was also stunned by Ye Chen's power. He hastily took out a Token and crushed it fiercely!

In that instant, all the major powers within Luoyun City were alerted!
